SEPTEMBER 17, 1020. THE SPIRIT OF THE HELPING HAND Upon the request of the local Y. M. C. A., three hundred members of the Sophomore class each wrote to several members of the new Freshman class, gave them items of interest at the college, accurate directions as regards entraining for State College, and offered to meet them upon their arrival to assist them in becoming located here at the slightest inconvenience to the new men. Some went even further, meeting the new men at the nearer railroad stations and ac companying them to the college. The work was done quietly; it was effective; it brought the workers no material gain, but was a work which marks these participating members of the class of 1022 as hav ing done something for their fellows which no class has ever accom plished. While this action bears no direct relation whatever to the common attitude reward Freshmen as regards customs and the upholding of traditions, it docs place the two lower classes upon a better basis of understanding; and while it does not mean that organized hazing will cease, it docs mean that the members of the two classes understand what is required of them. It docs away with the old feeling of an tagonism which has always existed in each. It carries with it a more friendly spirit of rivalry than has been the case heretofore and will undoubtedly show itself in the numerous tilts between these two classes in the future. Each class will cling more dearly to its honor and strive more earnestly for its glory and success. Without a doubt it brings forward more and more the spirit which it is desirable to find in the underclassmen. ’This action of the Y. M .C. A. means much to Penn State, It places the Christian Association and the men connected with it on a still higher plane. Men will come to realize more and more just what the “Y" means to the college and to them. It shows them what the spirit of the local organization is. It means a greater realization of the spirit of-the Alan of Galilee, to whom all men wore as brothers. If Penn State is to grasp the spirit which the “Y" is fostering on the campus, then there will be no antagonism among the students. Each will realize the others needs, his own requirements and fulfill them. A wonderful project in itself, this newest spirit will make itself felt on the campus and it is to be hoped that it will grow by leaps and bounds. NEW STANDS AT LAST The COLLEGIAN unites with the student body in rejoicing over the wonderful conditions soon to be available on New Beaver Field. For years this publication has advocated just such changes as are evident now. The student action last spring was the very thing to make possible what had always been considered impossible, because of the lack of funds with which the college was forced to content itself. Penn State is coming into her own‘and it is most pleasing to all that the project, once started, has been taken hold of in a determined manner. No sufficient amount of praise can be given the men who fostered the idea and then carried it out, nor can Penn State students of the future ever forget that in these years the wonderful changes were brought about. Those who have been here the past few years, as well as those who have returned after several years absence, can never forget the condi tions existing on New Beaver when large crowds were present at the contests being enacted there. Last Pennsylvania Day is a most significant example. Almost ten thousand persons were gathered about the football 'field at that time. The stands were filled to their utmost capacity and then not half of the participants were seated. That was a most discouraging situation. Now we arc pleased to note that it will require a record breaking crowd to ovcrllow the seating room, especially after the temporary bleachers are erected at the north and south ends of the gridiron . While these wonderful changes remain fresh in mind we cannot fail to remark on what the advantages will be when we have adequate facilities for carrying out the mass athletic program advocated by the Director of Physical Education. Further, we cannot mistake what Penn State will be when her entire student body as well as visitors, can be comfortably seated at all indoor contests. Nor can we lose sight of the wonderful oportunities to be had at this college when the large swimming tank and recreation hall arc built. We can only hope for these improvements in the near future and be ready to give our heartiest support to any project embracing them. THE HOUSING PROBLEM • One of the most serious problems which the college and towns people have had to face during this past week*hns been the housing of the great number of students attending the institution this year. Last year the sitimion was of the same type, but not nearly ns acute, but this year, in spite of the small number of new men and women per mitted to matriculate,, it lias been very serious. A very fortunate phase of the entire problem lias been the cooperation which has ex isted between the college, the townspeople, the newly organized Cham ber of Commerce and the Y. Al. C. A. Through these agencies the greater number of students have been taken care of. The problem was very quickly dealt with. The townspeople have responded nobly to the call and wherever possible students have round a place to stay. The work or the Chamber of Commerce in this respect was very praiseworthy, as was the effort displayed by the college authorities in securing out-of-town temporary quarters should the necessity arise. The Y. Al. C. A. is to be congratulated on the splendid way in which it responded to the student body's need. Cots and blankets were provided and Tor several nights some students were quartered in the Armory. Parallel to this was the noble way in which the Y. W.C. A. served the students through the temporary cafeteria on the campus. The evident. AH organizations responded in a characteristic Penn State way. The keynote of it all was service; of a kind which repays tenfold. However, the situation has very clearly evidenced that this col lege must remain where it now stands unless sqme aid is received It is most encouraging to note that the State Chamber of Commerce has taken (lie-matter in hand nnd it is hoped that in the future relief will be had from such trials as these. But Penn State has been growing. For the sake of the college we love we do not like to stand idle and sec her forced to bow before such conditions any longer than we must. Without a doubt we need several large dormitories for men and likewise for women. Last year the college refused entrance to a large number of prospective students, nnd this year the number lies between 1200 and 1500. It is good that the people of the state are to learn these things. Allowing her the privilege of extending I entrance to all students who so desire, this college would soon become 'an institution of a size to parallel the largest in this country. May it be the will of the people and those who represent the people that such will be the case i nthc near future. ATTRACTIVE COURSE IS OFFERED UNDERCLASSMEN Students May Choose From A Variety of Sports—Personal Hy gient to lie Taught. The coming college year promises to Ik; ;t busy one for the Department at Physical Education if the work ns out lined by Director Hugo Bozedek is car ried out. Besides offering courses In physical education and personal hy giene lo the two lower classes u£ the college, the department will carry through the movement inaugurated hist year of Increasing the athletic fac ilities of tills institution. Tills athletic program has already gained much head way as is shown by the improvement done on New Beaver Field and when it is finished, Hugo Bezdek wil lhavc facilities second to none in the country for carrying on his work at Penn Stale. Physical Education Courses. Several new features arc embodied in the courses which are given by the department. Instead of dividing the work Into semesters, the college year has been divided into three pelrods: Autumn-Septembor 15 to November 25 U’lnier-Novembor 29 to March 23; Spring-March 30 to June 1, All Fresh men and Sophomores are required to take two courses during these periods, one being a course in personal hygiene and the other a course in physical edu cation. Students enrolled in the latter course will he allowed to elect work .vhh some one of the organized squads md classes which are as follows: Au umn-Koothail, 'Cross Country, Soccer. Fall Track lacrosse, Basketball, "’rest ling, Boxing, Golf, Tennis, Gymnastics, ami Calisthenics. During the second or winter period classes in basketball, boxing, wrestling, gymnastics, calis thenics and indoor track will he held. In the last period which falls within the spring months there will he sche duled classes lit baseball, track, tennis, golf, soccer, lacrosse, and spring foot- ball. it as been announced by Direc tor Bccdek that there will be squads for Freshmen lit every sport. As us ual, the regular physical examination will he given new students by a corps of doctors under the direction of the department. Big Projects Planned. Two big projects arc planned for the year but ilnancial conditions may force the carrying, through of only the one. Tito first of those projects is the build ing of more play fields while the other calls for the erection in the very near future of at least one wing of the pro posed Recreation Hall. If the latter Is chosen by the- student body, the building will he given over to a swim ming pool of big dimensions nnd to the equipment needed for such, Including locker rooms and phowot* baths. Football fields arc also to come in for their share of attention. Work on New Beaver Field has gone on without Interruption all summer nnd everything possible is being done to rush the work CRYSTAL CAFE j The old men are welcome again, and we will be pleased to serve all.

GLEE CLUB WINS PLACE IN INTERCOLLEGIATE CONTEST In recognition of its iiigii rank nnd worth the lVim State Glee Club was recently chosen as one of the six re presentatives in the Intercollegiate Glee Club Corporation, thus assuring annual competition with the glee clubs of the leading universities of the cast. These contests will take .place this year at Carnegie Hall. New York City, on March twenty-ninth when thirty men representing the I’eim State organiza tion will attempt to win the laurels from the glee clubs of Yale, Harvard. Princeton, Dartmouth, ami Amherst. Two additional members of the confer ence are to be chosen from the uni versities of Pennsylvania, Cornell, Col umbia. ami Syracuse. The existancc of the IntemdlegJato Glee Club Corpora tion is due lo the efforts of the Uni versity Glee Club of New York City in which which James A. Leyden *M Is a member of the executive committee. Previous to the war Penn State Glee Club won high honors several limes in Intercollegiate contests and C. C. Rob inson. head of the Department of Mus ic and Director of the Glee Club wel comes the opportunity of entering per manently into the Intercollegiate or ganization. I'lans for the trip of the Varsity Quartet to Panama are practically complete. The Quarlctt will sail on December ninth ami will return in time for the re-opening of school after the Christmas holidays. SOCCER MEN PREPARE FOR SEASONS CONTESTS Judging from the number of candi dates who reported for training last Thursday to coach "Jim" Crowell, Penn State bids fair to have the best Soccer team since the Inauguration of that sport on the athletic curriculum. A wealth of material is on hand due larg ely to the fact that only two veterans of last seasons star aggregation, Cap tain Starkey nnd Arncr, have been lost by graduation. Although the loss of these veterans will he keenly felt, it will not seriously handicap the team as several of hist season’s promising substitutes bid fair to hold down var sity berths. The veterans of last season who have already reported are Captain Ilazlo wood,Mnllner, Mvarkle, Grupp,Kennedy. Rlackmoro. James, Gladding, Traphon-' or nnd Milliken. Hosterman Is a likely candidate for goal to succeed Arner while Keller of last year's Sophomore team will push the varsity men hard. Of last years yearling team Kelley, JJarll, Captain Humphries. Speers, Halt man, Longhurst and Shall* offer prom- AND Ising material to lie developed and with a little nu*re seasoning will offer stiff opposition to the first string men. The schedule for this season Is the most dillieult one ever arranged for a Penn Stale soccer team, for It will be called upon to compete with the; leading teams of the east. The season will open at home on October ninth with the strong Ustvorfovd aggregation as the opponents. Tills will he follow ed soon after by a game with Syracuse. Manager Bailey has arranged a north ern trip at Thanksgiving, during which Cornell and the University of Toronto will hf mc‘t. An effort is also Jieing made to bonk al tractions with Navy. West Point. Yale and Princeton. NEW LITERARY MAGAZINE . TO SUPPLANT ELDORADO The first Issue of the Blue and White formerly known as the Eldorado will ap pear today.
